Subject: Next GLLUG Meeting, 6 December 2003
That's right, there is a GLLUG meeting on Saturday 6th December 2003, between
12noon and 5pm.
We will be meeting in the New Cavendish Street campus of Westminster
University. This is in the shadow of the BT Tower, the nearest tube stations
are Great Portland Street, Warren Street and Goodge Street. You will find a
map at [ http://www.wmin.ac.uk/static/maps.asp ] or via www.streetmap.co.uk
NOTE: you will need to sign in at the front desk to gain access to the
building. There are building works at the moment but we'll post signs if the
entrance has moved.
Schedule
12:00 - 12:45
Welcome and Introduction.
also opportunity to try and debug overhead projectors :-)
12:45 - 14:30
Tushar Joshi - PostgresSQL 7.4 Vs. MySQL 4.1
With databases being used in the backend of most systems nowadays and the
emergence of open source database as a viable alternative to bespoke and
proprietary systems, Tushar will be analysing two most commonly used open
source databases. The talk will start with an overview of general database
technology before focusing on the pros and cons of each database with a bias
on application development.
14:30 - 15:00
Break
15:00 - 16:45
Steve Coast - Mapping the Internet
16:45 - 17:00
Closing announcements
Do please be aware that we can't guarantee that the talks will happen at the
times stated, but we will do our best to make sure they do.
Other activities
The network lab, as it is known, can be used for rolling demos of Linux being
installations and to experiment with configuration.
We also have the Multimedia room. This will be used for people to set is up
their own machines. You can do this if you have something to show off, or you
are looking for a solution to some problems. If your are bringing in your own
machine, make sure you sign it in when you arrive, otherwise security won't
let you take it when you go! We'll have monitors, keyboards, mice, and
powerleads available. [So no need to lug all that stuff].
We will have access to some of the latest iso images and a CD-Burner.
If you decide to bring a PC, please have the serial number written down ahead
of time, in case it needs to be registered at the ground floor Reception. We
may also take a picture of you and your PC as proof of ownership.
The network lab and the multimedia room are the places you can go to, should
you be looking for sanctuary away from the formal talks. If we're lucky the
Refectory on the ground floor will have its food and drinks machines
restocked.
After
After the meeting, for those that want, the group will move off to 'The Green
Man' public house, very close to Great Portland Street. Even if you were
unable to make the daytime meeting, please feel free to join us at the pub.

Subject: Lineox Inc. releases Lineox Linux LIFF - The Complete Linux Document

Press release 28. Nov. 2003
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lineox Inc. releases Lineox Linux LIFF - The Complete Linux Document
Collection and Server
Lineox Inc, a company dedicated to Linux products, consulting and
education, has today released Lineox LIFF, which is a completely new
kind of documentation product. Lineox LIFF combines innovatively many
techniques to make it the best Linux documentation product in the market
today. The product can be downloaded as a CD-ROM image from
www.lineox.com and bought as a CD-R disk.
This unique CD-ROM contains almost 1.8GB of files and can be read with
Linux kernel 2.4.14 or later, which support transparent CD-ROM file
system compression. The disk contains about 900MB of documentation files
including all Linux Documentation Project books and HOWTO documents. The
disk also contains all program documentation of soon to be released
Lineox Enterprise Linux, man and info pages converted to HTML format,
and all recent Red Hat and Mandrake manuals.
This huge document collection is indexed and if Lineox LIFF is installed
as an add-on to a web server, the documents can be searched in seconds
depending on server and network speed. The search can be restricted to
all or some documents of a certain category or all documents on Lineox LIFF.
When Lineox LIFF is installed on a web server, it can be used from any
operating system and browser with network connection. LIFF is installed
on www.lineox.com, so the on-line version can be tried before purchasing
or downloading Lineox LIFF.
Lineox LIFF offers three different installation options. It can be
installed as a normal hard disk installation requiring almost 1.8GB of
hard disk space. CD-ROM image file installation requires only about
690MB of hard disk space because the image file contains compressed
CD-ROM file system. The third option actually offers a possibility to
regain up to about 500MB of hard disk space because all the files
required by LIFF are accessed from CD-ROM and optionally the files which
are the same on hard disk can be removed and replaced with links to CD-ROM.
